Whoever had the idea of lightning striking his mouth before doing the second laser is a goddamn genius. Such a clean animation. I also love that his laser attack does not last for 5 business days like midir or placidusax, while looking just as cool. Bayle's laser is avoided by 3 well timed rolls and then the boss is in prime position for you to punish. Midir's and placidusax's lasers kinda impede the gameplay a bit imo. Still amazing bosses though
I think bayle actually does have some programming in his second phase that decides certain attacks at the end of the OST, similar to the divine beast. He has a tendency to either roar, use the nuke, or use the laser during this time, which I find really cool.
Soaking it all in like Igon's charred remains. Making me wonder again if he was envious of the red lightning and lashed out, cuz i'll be damned if he doesn't use his own "red" lightning about as seamlessly as Placidusaax.
@@TheKing-qz9wd I definitely got the vibe of bayle being envious, learning the powers of ancient dragons to show them they’re not superior to his kind. Even his body in phase 2 now resembles ancient dragons with 4 limbs and 2 wings
@@Veloketh Don't they have 4 limbs and 4 wings? Either way, fair point. I only noticed so far as they share a tail club so he's still somewhere on that family tree.
@@TheKing-qz9wd they do, the point is more that the arms are separate from the wings, like with irl depictions of dragons vs wyverns. That’s what makes dragons more fantastical, there’s no irl animal that has this (apart from like… insects?). I think I heard GRRM talk about this once, he wanted ASOIAF to be more realistic and grounded in irl nature, so his dragons are actually wyverns because they could exist in our world based on their body structure
@@jakewilson6600 fr, it’s not just disgustingly cool to look at but also very satisfying to avoid with 3 well timed dodges. That’s probably the first aerial fire attack that you don’t just have to outrun
I only now noticed that the Colosseum or whatever those structures in the background are are set on fire when he explodes and goes into his second phase I never caught wind of that before from all the flashing effects also 04:03 it is almost ridiculous how a short little hop just undoes the effects of that mega attack I get it, the Tarnished has nothing in their arsenal to efficiently get out of this but from the noise and the impact that the move creates, one would think that hovering half a meter above ground would probably evaporate your legs or one would at least sustain some kind of damage from the heat wave alone this game contradicts it´self in very interesting ways still leages better than that rotten Consort Battle
@@umukzusgelos4834 yeah I only really noticed that this time around too. Also the tower-like structures look a bit like massive bee hives. Makes me wonder if the drakes lived up there in the past It surely is whimsical looking at the tarnished and seeing him avoid nuclear apocalypse with a slight hop but I guess it’s always been ridiculous that the player character can just judo rolls around and phase through solid steel and literal lasers. Just gotta suspend the disbelief and I prefer that to just running away to avoid it
@@Veloketh kinda looks like an arena meant to mimic placidusax actual arena, maybe bayle made it or something and practices to throw hands with him again
lots of dodging and sprinting away, rarely roll into him, try to avoid the corners of the arena and pray that no off camera lightning will hit you. I’ve got a video of the dancing lion maybe that helps (it’s not perfect tho)
You is right, this is cinematic Unlike an average battle, Bayle looks like he actually missing those swipes vs. the player just phasing through him like usual Igon would be proud.

@@Veloketh I had some but deleted in pure rage 🤣. Seriously cannot stand getting pinned against the wall. Or when he goes out of range flying around and it locks off.

@@SaxSlaveGael oh right I forgot about the lock off lmao. The beginning sucks because it would be so easily solved by either a) letting us start in the middle like with Midir, b) making bayle start further behind or c) making bayle have a scripted opening attack like the sideways flame wave
@@SmolShippie it sucks that there’s no standard for console games, you just have to hope the developers thought of including it or cared about it. Some games give you the option like Lies of P but it must be frustrating to gamble what game does and doesn’t so I get why you switched to PC lol
"Babe, this is your 4th Bayle cinematic 4K fight with OST sync, is everything OK?"
„Babe wake up, you were screaming CURSE YOU BAYLE in your sleep again, I want the divorce“
@Veloketh man she fake A F. Leave her. She's not the one
The way the music and the explosion sync at 4:05 is peak.
That’s good. Me personally I would say the gigantic laser would fit that part of the song too
Actual chills
what a sick boss, in this fight they really delivered the intensity of what’s like to fight a god
I can watch this fight a million times, it's masterful, a big thank you to you Veloketh!
@@_iRBiS thanks so much!!

@@HeyTarnished LMAO
True, the tension while climbing the peak for the first time, not knowing what awaits on top, was insane
The Dread Lord of Jagged Peak.
I keep coming back to this one, the ost syncing with Bayle's nuke is perfect
Why this is better than most anime dragon fights
I think bayle actually does have some programming in his second phase that decides certain attacks at the end of the OST, similar to the divine beast. He has a tendency to either roar, use the nuke, or use the laser during this time, which I find really cool.
@@suspicious_spy I would welcome that, I love the direction they’re going with connecting more of the bosses’ movesets with their OST‘s, it’s so sick

1:10 That was sick
this fight is just a cinematic moment generator
Holy fuck, man. FS really outdid themselves with this one. Absolutely fucking insane!
His attack where he flies in the air and drowns the arena in fire in an L shape is the coolest attack ever to have blessed me with total evisceration.
@@jakewilson6600 fr, it’s not just disgustingly cool to look at but also very satisfying to avoid with 3 well timed dodges. That’s probably the first aerial fire attack that you don’t just have to outrun
@Veloketh even then it can be just as thrilling to try and outrun it cause it just looks so menacing

The first one was much better in sync i think, it didn't need remake.
true
